Looks like it’s got green beans in it. No wonder the cat sent it back.

A cat walks into an apartment and slips on some vomit. Minutes later, Anna walks into the apartment and slips on the vomit as well. The cat says, “I just did that.” So Anna throws out the cat.

If you fed the cat a good food (it, not crap you get at Walmart) it wouldn’t throw up so much or have stinky poop. You’re welcome.

It looks like the cat is proofreading the note.

Of course, if they had a dog it would have been happy to clean up the vomit for the cat!

You know, there is one thing i’ve always loved about this website, besides the passive-aggressive notes… (duh). Everyone is so amusing with their comments, as well as having above average literacy skillz.
That shits tight, yo.

In a cruel reversal to the dog shaming meme, cat decides to start human shaming meme.

If that’s the only cat in the house, then that’s an awful lot of food to leave out.
Of course, if better food was being fed, then less would have to be put in the bowl.

cat barf is one of the great mysteries of the universe. No one knows when or where (or why) it will appear, it just does!

I wouldn’t have to ask if the staff was any good. I shall have to punish them.

Looks like a prime example of: ‘I didn’t even want this stupid anti-social eating machine. You wanted him so badly, you can clean up when he shits and pukes around the house.’
I’m the sort who’d be tempted to leave this note. Pets are an odd concept.

If you were eating food out of a dish shaped like a cat’s head, you would be vomiting brains, too.

This cat looks a lot less content than Byron. I think she needs to get out and get some fresh air.

This isn’t really relevant, but one of the funniest parts of shrek 2 was Puss puking up a hairball because it was so damn accurate. I want to know how long the animators studied puking cats so they could get it right.

Ah, the joys of owning a cat. The presents.
I got lucky in that my past few haven’t been pukers, but now I’ve got one. He likes horking under the bed at three AM. I just clean it up in the morning when I’m coherent again.

I’m hungry. Is anybody else hungry?

We’ve got one that has never thrown up, one that throws up constantly (no matter what he eats and how much we brush him) and the newest feline member of the family will clean up the cat puke for us if we don’t get to it first.
Upshot, we never find surprise overnight puke. Buzz has made sure it’s all gone before we get up.

I really hope the cat owner makes sure the cat is in good health. The not chewing could just be because the cat is eating too quickly (in which case the owners should make sure the food is in a place where the cat feels secure, and not like he/she needs to rush–since they can feel vulnerable when eating), but it could also be a sign of dental decay–especially if the cat is older. Since if the teeth are decaying, etc, and and there is a lot of irritation/infection chewing could be really painful, and that could be a possible cause for the unchewed food.

I don’t like cats. I’m married to a cat lover. I get so sick of cleaning up after the nasty little biohazard machines that I can totally see myself leaving notes like this on every deposit from now on.

In my experience, chunky but non-furball-containing regurgitation can be left in place for a few hours. The perpetrator will often come back and contentedly re-eat the mess, sometimes even licking the floor sparkly clean.Problem solved.

I know a married couple who have a rule that allows the first person who sees cat puke to shout, “Not it!” Then the other person has to clean it up.
